Butler’s two-year run in the NCAA tournament will go down in the history of the sport as one of the more remarkable runs in the modern era. Two years. Two national title games. The first one ended on a last possession miss against mighty Duke. The second one will come against either Connecticut or Kentucky, both elite programs. Butler beat VCU 70-62 Saturday night at Reliant Stadium in what was billed as the undercard in the first of two national semifinals. But the way Butler is playing this month, in this tournament, it’s hard to call them anything but a headline act. Sure, the numbers say Butler is a No. 8 seed and seeds this low aren’t supposed to play for national championships. Trends like that are meaningless now.
